libnvdimm: fix nvdimm_bus_lock() vs device_lock() ordering
A debug patch to turn the standard device_lock() into something that lockdep can analyze yielded the following: ====================================================== [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 4.11.0-rc4+ #106 Tainted: G O ------------------------------------------------------- lt-libndctl/1898 is trying to acquire lock: (&dev->nvdimm_mutex/3){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffc023c948>] nd_attach_ndns+0x178/0x1b0 [libnvdimm] but task is already holding lock: (&nvdimm_bus->reconfig_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffc022e0b1>] nvdimm_bus_lock+0x21/0x30 [libnvdimm] which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (&nvdimm_bus->reconfig_mutex){+.+.+.}: lock_acquire+0xf6/0x1f0 __mutex_lock+0x88/0x980 mutex_lock_nested+0x1b/0x20 nvdimm_bus_lock+0x21/0x30 [libnvdimm] nvdimm_namespace_capacity+0x1b/0x40 [libnvdimm] nvdimm_namespace_common_probe+0x230/0x510 [libnvdimm] nd_pmem_probe+0x14/0x180 [nd_pmem] nvdimm_bus_probe+0xa9/0x260 [libnvdimm] -> #0 (&dev->nvdimm_mutex/3){+.+.+.}: __lock_acquire+0x1107/0x1280 lock_acquire+0xf6/0x1f0 __mutex_lock+0x88/0x980 mutex_lock_nested+0x1b/0x20 nd_attach_ndns+0x178/0x1b0 [libnvdimm] nd_namespace_store+0x308/0x3c0 [libnvdimm] namespace_store+0x87/0x220 [libnvdimm] In this case '&dev->nvdimm_mutex/3' mirrors '&dev->mutex'. Fix this by replacing the use of device_lock() with nvdimm_bus_lock() to protect nd_{attach,detach}_ndns() operations.
